  • untill we start stadning together as a people,,,standing up and demanding that whats been going on in our country stop,,,and demand our leaders go by our constitution..untill then..we are on the road to losing the freedoms our fonders gave to us. Its up to us to hold onto our freedom..we each have a responability to this. It will take us all,,because there is more of us than there are them..We just need to stand together..No matter what!!

  • if every child in america could just see this scene as i was told it when i was a child.. then we would not have the problems we have today.. tho i hat hollywood with a passion .. i must commend the makers of this film.. VERY GOOD and if folks would just have thier children and themselvse observe this.. we would be FREE, these men pledged their LIVES, their FORTUNES, their sacred HONOR

  • @gscarpa6 Out framers hated the way America was going even 20 years after the Revolution, so of course they'd not even recognize us today. They'd also laugh at how we've turned them into cult icons and symbols of our freedom. They considered themselves ordinary citizens doing their duty, not heroes. But the fact is that the founding fathers did believe in spending money - which is ironic.

  • are founding fathers are turning over in there graves if they new how are goverment has conducted themselfs inthis bad economics time spending out of control enemployment out of control health care out of control and on and on may god have mercy on there souls

  • @DsaiTheWhite Not if you actually read the source. "Without religion, this world would be something not fit to be mentioned in polite company: I mean hell." No ellipse.

    John Adams, The Works of John Adams, Second President of the United States, Charles Francis Adams, editor (Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1856), Vol. X, p. 254, to Thomas Jefferson on April 19, 1817.

  • To all you 'slavery' commenter's...John Adams never owned slaves. And the show IS call "John Adams"

  • @TylerMaple3009 And the south had no representation in D.C!. Just look at the electorial map from 1861

  • @IslandersMets10 Though I agree that the South should not have been spat on, we must remember America wanted to secede because they had no representation in Parliment
